There are still six weeks of school, but it’s already started. In every park or open field there are boys playing baseball. For three months, these boys of summer will practice, compete and learn together. What an opportunity to build into the lives of these kids who will grow up and ultimately impact every part of our country and beyond.
“Athletes in Action is one of the greatest experiences a young man can have. The challenges of baseball are tremendous for growth, but the greatest growth comes in the spiritual side. My son was fortunate enough to play for AIA, and the greatest comment that he had to me was, ‘it was a life-changing experience.’” Billy Goss, Former NCAA Head Coach
This is why AIA’s Global Sports Baseball invests in the lives of thousands of young men each year in leagues and projects, largely through volunteers. Since 1980, AIA Baseball has been fielding national and international summer competing teams and has shared the Gospel on nearly every continent.
This summer’s project will be in the Dominican Republic. Locally, our baseball ministry takes place from little league all the way through college with our Xenia Scouts program in Xenia, OH.
There is a clear and present opportunity to impact the lives of many youth through a local baseball league. Is there an opportunity for you in your community to share Christ’s love with our future leaders?
